How do we know that salvation is dependent on God's drawing?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that no one can come to Christ unless drawn by the Father, as stated in John 6:44.

In John 6:44, Jesus emphasizes, 'No man can come to me except the Father which hath sent me draw him.' This reflects the sovereign grace of God in salvation, underscoring that human inability and moral depravity require divine intervention. The act of drawing indicates a powerful, irresistible call from God that overcomes the natural resistance of the sinful heart. It highlights that before one can desire or seek Christ, the Father must first work in their heart, awakening a true sense of need and hunger for spiritual truth, as also supported by passages like Ephesians 2:8-9, which affirm that faith is a gift of God, not a work of man.
